Reviews and Ratings
I found the hotel to be in a quiet area, away from the hustle and bustle, but unfortunately, all nearby hotels were fully booked due to an event. The service was excellent, and I particularly enjoyed the happy hour and having shops/commercial services available. The location was ideal for exploring the town, being near restaurants and shops. However, the quiet surrounding might not be to everyone's taste.
The hotel was situated in a quiet area where I did not experience any disturbances yet found out that all hotels within a 15-mile radius were fully booked due to an event. I could easily reach any restaurant in the vicinity. The rooms featured a full kitchen by the front desk, providing a convenient setup. The service was top-notch with excellent service and even complimentary happy hour at the shops. However, the lack of shops or commercial services nearby might be a drawback. I encountered no concerns with the amenities and enjoyed fresh unlimited pancakes during my stay.
I stayed at this hotel located in a peaceful area close to shopping and dining spots. Unfortunately, all nearby hotels were booked due to an event, but the service was exceptional with shops and happy hour available. The rooms had a full kitchen and the Neapolitan pizza was a highlight, but the lack of on-site dining and availability of front desk services was a drawback.
